YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Learn about one of the most contentious constitutional issues from Willamette Law Professor Steven Green author of "The Bible, the School, and the Constitution." The debate over school prayer and public funding of religious schools peaked just after the Civil War, between 1863 and 1876. During the 19th century, Protestants believed schooling should have a moral if not religious basis, in response to the growing Catholic presence which they felt threatened their culture. Steven Green analyzes the history of "The School Question" and how the debate between church and state is playing out today.
